Do Guys Really Do This?


So the other day I was talking to this really strange guy, who I owe a lot too since he helped me with my psychology midterm... but he's hella weird. 
At the end of the night, he said he was going to go have sex with a bagel... but that he couldn't because he didn't have any butter. This was very awkward for me.
This made me wonder, do guys do this? Like I know that most people are like, umm Angela, obvi he was joking... but you don't know him like I do. Without sounding like we dated, or something, I have a lot of dirt on this guy, and umm, he would is the thing.
So ya. It was awkward and I didn't like it. And now I just can't look at bagels the same way.

Coldplay Tickets


Yep, just bought 'em. I'm pretty excited about their show... I'm not like their biggest fan or anything, but I do think they are one of the greatest bands of our time, and I am quite happy to say that I get to see them! 
So since I last wrote, not a whole lot has happened. There's a bunch of drama going at my "workplace" and it's just a bunch of high school bullshit. Like no one has the balls to straight up tell someone they have a problem, so instead they beat around the bush and form alliances and do the exact things they accuse everyone else of doing. 
My sociological self would say that it is a very Marxist environment at this time. But it is true, there is definitely a battle of sorts and it pisses me off because I previously worked somewhere, where the same thing happened. It is always a wonder to me how people who have no leadership or people skills find themselves in charge of other people. And of course, deep down, these people know they are awful at what they do, and they suffer from anxiety and stress everyday because they are not doing what their skill set is made for. Or they become mega-bitches because they are insecure about how bad they are at their jobs.
I hope no one thinks I am slamming these people, all I am saying is that not everyone has leadership qualities and there is nothing wrong with that, it is just the fact of the matter.
So, yeah, it's annoying to say the least. At this point, I feel like I have enough experience with people like this to know how to deal with them, and I have been quietly building my case against them. Who knows if I will actually need it or not, however, it is reassuring to know that if need be I could defend myself and my other co-workers.
I'm one of those people, that I can guarantee you would rather not mess with.

My soul in a poem

Sarah had to do a paper on this poem, and she told me to read it. Once I had, I felt as though I had transported into the future, wrote it and then returned to my present self. I shall share it with you now.

You Have a Body I Can Touch

I love birds too but I can't hold them and
our children have been taken by their wings.

Your breath is the wind I wake to. You turn
on the fan when it's hot and squeeze lemon

into cups in the morning. When I think
your hair is just right you get it cut and 

get annoyed at my diagnoses of
the world, ask me why I only see the

bad, but this is a love poem and I 
think you should know that when I cry it's 

for your own good and mine. My rage is what 
keeps me here in the shade of your love. Your

refusal to engage in my rant is
as comforting as your Yorkshire pudding

and you are reliable as barbecue
sauce. You make things, I define them. You are

the Good Guy and your words are loaves of
bread fresh out the oven when bread is what 

I need you more than wine. Don't thank me when I 
kiss you. It has taken thirty years to

write this.

-Janet Vickers


FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!!!!
